Mercedes Benz Tailgate Control Switch (2128210551)

The Mercedes Benz Tailgate Control Switch (2128210551) is specifically designed for the W212, W210, W211 E-Class (1994 – 2006), W163, W164 ML (2002 – 2011), and W204 C-Class (2012 – 2014).

The Mercedes Benz Tailgate Control Switch (2128210551) is designed to control interior convenience features that improve everyday vehicle usability. Access and convenience switches are used for functions such as fuel door release, lift-gate operation, or other cabin-access features that do not directly affect driving performance. When these switches wear out or fail, simple tasks can become inconvenient or unresponsive, making replacement important for daily comfort.

Built from durable materials, this switch is designed to withstand frequent use while maintaining smooth operation and reliable electrical contact. Replacing worn convenience switches helps restore proper function, improves cabin accessibility, and keeps your vehicle operating as intended.
